IN MEMORIAM
Polly claimed she had life figured out by the
age of four, and didn't miss an opportunity
to celebrate the beauty of each fleeting
moment. Dusk was the perfect time to wan-
der the garden with a glass of Savignon
Blanc, a rainy day provided the perfect condi-
tions for a nap, and bedtime was a nebulous
concept at best as there was always room for
a splash more wine and one last song. Polly's
charm and joie de vivre were infectious.
Strangers would lower their guards, pianists
would make room on their benches, and
everything glowed a little brighter in her
presence.
Whether pretending to be the heiress to
the Hellman’s Mayonnaise fortune, a local
meteorologist, or a famous foreign food
critic,Polly delighted in irreverence and loved
playing games with people. Having been told
that she had three days left to live, Polly
immediately feigned her death in front of
her doctors, just to get a rise out of them.
Ever the difficult patient, she then went on to
live for another three weeks.
She passed away having spent this time
surrounded by her family, drinking wine and
celebrating a last Christmas (moved forward
to July) complete with a full tree and
presents.
Ned and Polly moved to Richmond in May- She loved the bubblegum pink house
on Park Avenue that she had dreamed about
for years.
In the difficult days leading up to her passing
Polly comforted us saying that she had lived
the best life and that she had cherished every
day. We take strength in knowing the truth
of those words, and strive to celebrate each
day in Polly's memory. Cheers Polly, we love
you and miss you dearly and keep you in our
hearts always.
JUDITH VENETIA HOPE
OCTOBER 3, 1948 - July 30, 2018
Judy (Polly Dashmore) Hope passed away a
year ago on July 30, only one day before the
29th anniversary of the tragic death of her
darling daughter, Mandy. In her memory her
family celebrates her remarkable life
Polly was a true light in this world; the pride
of her family, the life of the party. She
was the partner of her beloved husband
Ned, loving mother of four children, adoring
grandmother of two (and counting), fairy
godmother of countless more, impressionist
artist, proud manager of Mesmeralda's gift
shop in McLean for many years, citizen of
the U.S., England, and her native Australia,
madame of make believe, champion of the
eccentric, vanquisher of moderation, bringer
of joy. A novel, Polly Dashmore the Queen
of the Snowy Mountains, was even written
about Polly's exploits as a youth.Had you
had the pleasure of meeting Polly, you would
remember the encounter.HOPE
